X-Metal replica perception/ thoughts

[Jimhalfx]

If Luxotica/Oakley hadn’t left us with glasses that can’t be serviced I may have a different tune, but they left us high and dry.

No different than car companies that no longer support the original VW Beetle … so the aftermarket does what the aftermarket does… capitalizes on poorly managed companies.

Bring on the 3D printed product.

If Luxotica cared, they would not respond when asked about parts for X metals with offering 20% off new lenses … they give that deal all day long via email. Just totally out of touch … like Jaguar and their WOKE advertising agenda that just got canned.

I say make them. I’d buy a pair and not care what anyone thought. If that guy making carbon fiber pairs would’ve built me a Romeo the last thing on my mind would be what some “collector” thought of them. Or me.

1000% agreed

Hope to have a set at some point - stay tuned.

Sorry, but you sound like some self-entitled bratt. Who, just because he wants something, makes it alright to break the rules, just to appease your strop.
Please don't think that you're ideas are new, nor that you're the first to come up with these 'groundbreaking' ideas. The reason for us not having pursued such methods, is due to a respect of Oakley Collectors and the ethos of Oakley: we want to own GENUINE Oakley, not tutt. There have been numerous triers, down the years, who want to make a quick and easy buck. All have ended up being shunned and blocked on here.
I've been collecting for a good 20+ years and although my collection is fairly large and covers an eclectic range, there's still more out there that I wish to acquire. But in my own time and sometimes through luck. This to me, is collecting.

Hiccups is one to look out for also. I have had a T.I.A., back in 1997, on Christmas morning. Prior to that I experienced a T.I.A., whilst at my rented property, about a week or so before this. Where after a brief snooze, I was fine again. I had no idea I'd a T I.A. and just assumed it was due to the medication I was on / way I slept for the incapactation. My whole right side was limp.

You are confusing a stroke with stroking I believe
